Several volume price analysis lessons here for cable

Several volume price analysis lessons here for cable

Several volume price analysis lessons here for cable The 5-minute chart of cable offers several lessons in volume price analysis. First, we have to wait for signals to be confirmed, which is the case in the uptrend. The weakness is signalled clearly on high volume. This is followed by further signals of weakness as the move runs out of steam, before the reversal duly begins. Then, in the downtrend, as the reversal gets underway, we see the clear re-entry signals and opportunities to jump on the trend if we missed the initial signals. Applying Volume Price Analysis to Forex: Using Tick Volume as a Proxy Forex is the world's largest and most liquid market, but unlike stocks or futures, it is decentralized with no central exchange reporting true volume. This lack of centralized data means traditional volume figures are unavailable. Traders use tick volume as a proxy—the number of price changes (ticks) in a period. Tick volume correlates closely with actual trading activity,...

Two volume price analysis lessons in one!

Two volume price analysis lessons in one!

Two-volume price analysis lessons in one here on the daily chart for the GBP/JPY. First, we see rising prices and falling volume as the rally of late March stalls. This is an anomaly as we should expect to see rising prices supported with rising volume if the trend is to develop with real momentum. Then we move into the congestion phase. Note the fall in volume as price action narrows and trades around the volume point of control. Now, all we need to do is wait and be patient. The breakout will come in due course and be confirmed as genuine or false with volume. The Historical Foundations of Volume Price Analysis Volume Price Analysis (VPA) has its roots in the early days of technical analysis, dating back to Charles Dow's Dow Theory in the late 19th century. Dow emphasized that price movements must be confirmed by volume to be valid—high volume on advances showed strength, low volume warned of weakness. This...
